police action
prompts report
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
(AP) — An official commission is
sued a stinging report Saturday say
ing police fired without reason on a
protest march, killing five blacks and
wounding 156. The report recom
mended a criminal investigation.
The report into police conduct at
the Sebokeng township March 26
was one of the harshest criticisms of
police conduct ever made by an offi
cial inquiry.
The attorney general should in
vestigate policemen who fired bul
lets for possible criminal action, said
the report, written by Justice R.J.
Goldstone.
Police “displayed an attitude of
unconcern for the lethal nature of
their ammunition ... This is an atti
tude which no police force should
tolerate,” the report said.
It was released at a time when po
lice are under attack from the Afri
can National Congress, church
groups and others for alleged bias
and improper conduct in black fac
tional fighting around Johannes
burg.

“It (the proactive policy) is the
most effective thing for Texas A&M
University,” Riley said.
In its report, the committee cited
newly implemented policies at other
universities that punished those who
discriminated against others.
The committee stated in its re
port, “...it was felt that a policy simi
lar to the ones adopted at other uni
versities would act as a lightning rod
for constitutional attack and detract
from the true purpose of fostering a
more tolerant environment at Texas
A&M University.”
It also stated the program would
encourage an educational environ
ment in which discrimination will be
less likely to occur because faculty,
staff and students will have devel
oped an appreciation of A&M’s di
verse campus.
Carl Carey, a committee member
and representative from the Black
Awareness Committee, said he
thought the minority students at
A&M would be pleased with the fi
nal report.
“I would assume that it (the re
port) would make minority students
on campus more comfortable to
know that the University is behind
them as far as denouncing discrimi
nation, harassment and racism,” he
said.
Georgette Lopez-Aguado, a mem
ber of the committee and a rep
resentative of the Committee for the
Awareness of Mexican American
Culture, said she would like to see a
mandatory culture-awareness class
added to the core curriculum.
“We’re a society that needs imme
diate gratification,” she said. “A mul
ticulture course would probably not
be immediately gratifying for many.
But once students go out to the real
world, they’ll realize that multicultu-
ralisirtis it (a part of today’s society).”

When I finally came across him
(Rojas) I pulled him to shore and be
gan one-man CPR until the ambu
lance arrived.”
Green estimated he performed
CPR on Rojas for over 20 minutes.
The Bryan Fire Department re
ceived the call at 6:31 p.m. and ar
rived at the scene 12 minutes later.
Goen said that if Green had not
pulled the victim out of the water as
quickly as he did and started cardio
pulmonary resuscitation when he
did, Rojas might have died at the
scene.
Goen estimated Rojas was under
water about five minutes and said in
normal circumstances a person can
survive only four to six minutes.
Goen attributed Green’s knowledge
of CPR as the reason Rojas is still al
ive. He stressed that everyone
should know CPR.
The Bryan Fire Department tea
ches CPR classes at least once a
month and the class is open to the
public for a $5 processing fee. For
more information, contact Paul
Mras, EMS chief for Bryan Fire De
partment.
